Description Peter Fernandes 2006-11-24 19:32:14 UTC 
Description of problem: When trying to run any OpenGL program (such as glxgears)
the program exits and prints:
drmCommandWrite: -22
drmRadeonCmdBuffer: -22 (exiting)

often with:
"libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x4b"
before the above two errors.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Using a Radeon 9250, start any OpenGL program.
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
The above commands are printed, and the program exits.

Expected results:
The program starts normally.

Additional info:
I have tried this with two 9250's, and the results were the same, ruling out a
bad card.  Also, OpenGL starts fine on my onboard graphics hardware using
xorg-x11-drv-i810, so my motherboard is not at fault.
Comment 1 Matěj Cepl 2006-12-12 16:24:12 UTC 
Thanks for the bug report.  We have reviewed the information you
have provided above, and there is some additional information we
require that will be helpful in our diagnosis of this issue.

Please attach your X server config file (/etc/X11/xorg.conf) and X
server log file (/var/log/Xorg.*.log) to the bug report as individual
uncompressed file attachments using the bugzilla file attachment link
below. Could please also attach output of the command dmesg (e.g., the file
which is created by dmesg >filename)?

Also don't you have by chance 64-bit computer. There seems to be related
discussion at http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.freedesktop.xorg/6514 about
similar issue with mixing 64bit and 32bit libraries.

We will review this issue again once you've had a chance to attach
this information.

Thanks in advance.

I have have a 32-bit architecture, not 64.  Also, I doubt the xorg.conf file to
be the problem here.  I've attached all the Xorg.*.log files.
